Mono-substituted TSA precursor Si-containing film forming compositions are disclosed. The precursors have the formula: (SiH.sub.3).sub.2N—SiH.sub.2—X, wherein X is selected from a halogen atom; an isocyanato group; an amino group; an N-containing C.sub.4-C.sub.10 saturated or unsaturated heterocycle; or an alkoxy group. Methods for forming the Si-containing film using the disclosed mono-substituted TSA precursor are also disclosed.

A method of depositing a film is provided. In the method, one operation of a unit of film deposition process is performed by carrying a substrate into a processing chamber, by depositing a nitride film on the substrate, and by carrying the substrate out of the processing chamber after finishing depositing the nitride film on the substrate. The one operation is repeated a predetermined plurality of number of times continuously to deposit the nitride film on a plurality of substrates continuously. After that, an inside of the processing chamber is oxidized by supplying an oxidation gas into the processing chamber.

A composition and method for using the composition in the fabrication of an electronic device are disclosed. Compounds, compositions and methods for depositing a low dielectric constant (<4.0) and high oxygen ash resistance silicon-containing film such as, without limitation, a carbon doped silicon oxide, are disclosed.

Subject matter disclosed herein may relate to fabrication of correlated electron materials used, for example, to perform a switching function. In embodiments, precursors, in a gaseous form, may be utilized in a chamber to build a film of correlated electron materials comprising various impedance characteristics.

The invention relates generally to use of a silicon oxynitride film which exhibits desirable physical and chemical properties; superiority in adhesion to metals including noble metals and other metals, transparent conductive oxides, and semiconductor materials compared to silicon dioxide and silicon nitride; is wet-etchable, dry-etchable, or both; and operates as a high-performance overcoat barrier dielectric. The silicon oxynitride film meets performance requirements via a process that does not require an adhesion layer for deposition, and does not contaminate, obscure, or damage the device through incorporation or processing of additional adhesion layers.

Various embodiments include methods to produce low dielectric-constant (low-k) films. In one embodiment, alternating ALD cycles and dopant materials are used to generate a new family of silicon low-k materials. Specifically, these materials were developed to fill high-aspect-ratio structures with re-entrant features. However, such films are also useful in blanket applications where conformal nanolaminates are applicable. Various embodiments also disclose SiOF as well as SiOCF, SiONF, GeOCF, and GeOF. Analogous films may include halide derivatives with iodine and bromine (e.g., replace “F” with “I” or “Br”). Other methods, chemistries, and techniques are disclosed.

Described herein are compositions and methods using same for forming a silicon-containing film such as without limitation a silicon carbide, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, a carbon-doped silicon nitride, or a carbon-doped silicon oxide film on at least a surface of a substrate having a surface feature. In one aspect, the silicon-containing films are deposited using the co-deposition of an at least one first compound comprising a C—C double or C—C triple bond.

There is provided a semiconductor device including: a gate electrode; a channel layer arranged in a region directly below or directly above the gate electrode; a source electrode and a drain electrode arranged to be in contact with the channel layer; and a first insulating layer arranged between the gate electrode and the channel layer, the channel layer including a first oxide semiconductor, at least one of the source electrode and the drain electrode including a second oxide semiconductor, and the first oxide semiconductor and the second oxide semiconductor containing indium, tungsten and zinc.
